To run a model unit of manufacturing of leather craft and other traning institute.

Accordingly the objectives are being met, the list techniques of artisans from leather craft in this place were identified then was discovered that there is a traindeous for the artisans to flourish. But unfortunately the artisans were not getting explored byt the handicraft business environment. Hence the organization thought that these artisans should be brought up to a common platform, so their skills get developed and they get employement. Apart from this it was also discovered that the handicraft and the leather craft which was made was not marketed properly thus given a setback to the artisans and intimately to developing small handicraft units of Dewas.

Our organization planned and develpoed ways to tackle this situation by following theory :

Trannings, Skill upgradation, design development workshops, seminar, mobilization with HSG's, production, marketing, organizing craft bazaar, celebrating specific world days like handicraft week or world tourism days etc. Each of them is discharged in delayed.
